What killed Post-Rock?
>>
>>68978455
What does Arin listen to?
>>
>>68978497
Swans.
>>
That pic is too big, I don't like looking at them so closely. Weird looking.
>>
>>68978497
the sounds of his friends sleeping with his wife through the quest room wall
>>
>>68978497
The sound of his own agonizing gender dysphoria.
>>
>>68978497
Twenty One Pilots.
>>
>>68978497
who is arin
>>
Itself
>>
>>68978455
What the literal fuck? When did they get so fat?

Fuck dude, I miss when Egoraptor actually made animations instead of fucking Game Grumps
>>
>>68978659
He makes so much more money now though, and you can't make a living animating on youtube anymore. Maybe he'l get his own cartoon show in the future hopefully (if he actually still gives a shit about animating, I don't think he does).
>>
>>68978659
it's not like his animations were anything spectacular
>>
GY!BE
They changed the entire landscape of the genre for the worst: sampling, crescendos, "cinematic" imagery, etc.
>>
The post-rock is so fucking pretentious.

The community did.
>>
>>68978455
Godspeed You! Black Emperor, they conquered a genre in being the best band, and they ruined it because every band after copied them.
>>
>>68978771
Godspeed did those aspects well, the copycat bands did those aspects poorly

John Peel dying didn't help.

IS this real? Sauce

You guys should stop looking at youtubers through nostalgia glasses, they were really never that funny and the only good thing to come out of them is Jon
>>
>>68978777
>>68978790
GY!BE is boring as fuck lmao I listen to it to lull me to sleep.
>>
give me post-rock bands to listen to
>>
>>68979609
Limp Bizkit

There's only one person in this entire fucking thread that was doing this.

thanx lad

>>68979605
But it is. It's an hour of slow build up and then it fizzles out.
>>

Meant for >>68979655
>>
>>68979700
It caps off with a climax you foolish boy

Learn how to reply to the right person next time
>>
>>68979700
>>68979709
that's a far more valid criticism than just "its boring"
>>
>>68979713
With the amount of time it takes to even get to that point, they should just release a single with all the boring shit cut out.

>>68979720
Thanks.
>>
>>68979752
Well I'm sorry you don't have the patience to wait. That's the whole point of the climax, to resolve the build-up. Without the build-up, the climax would be out of context

If you were saying this about any shitty 3rd wave band, I'd agree, since their crescendos always fizzle out with disappointing climaxes. But GY!BE is the only band to have done crescendo-core well

I Single Handedly killed it
>>
>>68978581
I fell like that's actually true
>>
>>68978770
fucking true, just his art style kinda, i hear hes working on a new cartoon apart of the awesome series, i dont know for a fact though
>>
>>68978659
he does still animate, he works with some other animation studio or something on starbomb
>>
>>68979600
youtube was an incredible thing 2006-2009
>>
literally every song by GY!BE is in the key of C, building to the tonal center. you can't defend that shit
>>
From an episode of Sonic 06 with Jontron:

Arin: "Do you know of this weird music genre called shoegaze? It's called that because they all look sad at the floor when they play and they play depressing music"
Jontron: "I did not know that"

Also from another episode with Danny
Arin: I've never listened to an album by the Beatles or Pink Floyd

He know NOTHING about music. Guy is a total fucking pleb. Durr Jamiroquai

Like fuck off dude
>>
>>68980347
Mladic is in Eb
Storm is in Bb
Dunno the rest, but I'm damn sure you're wrong
>>
>>68980357
he also made fun of this song from ocarina of time
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZIm_22ivIuU

because it goes slow then fast, even though that's the fucking point because the composer was trying to emulate tempo rubato
>>
>>68978777
I don't think they conquered a genre, they just gave a certain sound for the term. But I agree on that they killed the whole genre at the same time, post-rock is boring as fuck most of the time since everyone just tries to mimic what GY!BE did.
>>
>>68978576
this

>dat soulless "I-want-to-die" stare in the 2nd pic
damn
>>
I don't understand why we're getting mad at Arin because he isn't that musically inclined. I think he's a cool, funny dude who makes decent content on YouTube. No need to get worked up over his taste.
>>
>>68979752
get taste lad
>>
>>68978455
Holy shit lmao
>>
>>68980347
Most of their early stuff is A#m
>>
>>68979673
Based chart.
>>
>>68978739
>(if he actually still gives a shit about animating)
Not really. He's stated that voice acting was always his main passion, animation was only an outlet for that. Now that he can sort of do that with GG, animation is no longer an endeavor of his.
>>
>>68980357
Danny mentioned Mercury Rev in passing once, he could potentially be patrician.
>>
>>68982997
arin please
he also has a band so it's kind of important that he's musically talented
>>
>>68984257
He's also mentioned Since I Left You and the music video for Pyramid Song.
https://youtu.be/eLUVXQdinZ0?t=574
https://youtu.be/2G0fywwBZcA?t=156

He's also said this is his favorite album.

god that bitch is so UGLY and fake looking
>>
No offence to Suzy, she seems like a nice person even though shes done some shady shit in the past, but that sleeve tattoo looks fucking stupid. Arin probably thought it was a bad idea but was too pussywhipped to say anything about it. Also fuck arins annoying self and that gay ass "band" hes in, not NSP the other one.
>>
>>68984257
also Gentle Giant which is pretty cool
>>
Jon was better than Arin.
